MATERIALS: 3- 2 oz. balls Lily brand Sugar ‘n Cream 4 ply cotton in Potpourri Ombre color, size E hook or hook to obtain gauge, about 400 large multi color (blue, amber, clear, burgundy, light green, etc.) glass beads, needle large enough to take yarn and beads, 4- 10 yd reels 1\4” wide burgundy ribbon, smaller needle to take ribbon, 1\4 yard fabric to match or contrast yarn, needle and thread, and one large snap for purse.
FINISHED SIZE: Purse is 9” X 12”
Gauge: 1 sq. = 4-1\2”
Please note: Glass beads aren’t consistent in diameter, so take time now to go through and separate the beads into two containers. Using your largest needle (one to take both bead and yarn) test each bead to whether it will slide over needle or not. The ones that will you use in the blocks. The ones that won’t you will use to thread onto the ribbon.
